Answer:

20 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of a rectangular deck is five times it's width if the decks perimeter is 24 feet what is the decks area

Step 1

We find the Length and Width of the deck

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2L + 2W

The length of a rectangular deck is five times it's width

W = Width

L = Length = 5W

P = 24 feet

Perimeter = 2(5W) + 2W

24 = 10W + 2W

24 = 12 W

W = 24/12

W = 2 feet

Solving for L

L = 5W

L = 5 × 2 feet

L = 10 feet

Step 2

We find the area of the deck

Area of the deck(Rectangle) = Length × Width

= 10 feet × 2 feet

= 20 square feet

chase and sara went to the candy store. chase bought 5 pieces of fudge and 3 pieces of gum for 5.70. sara bought 2 pieces of fud
Vilka [71]
Let, the cost of 1 piece of fudge = x
Cost of a gum = y

System of equations: 5x + 3y = 5.70
2x + 10y = 3.60

Multiply 1st equation by 2, and second by 5, 
New equations: 10x + 6y = 11.40
10x + 50y = 18

Now, subtract 1st from 2nd, 
44y = 6.60
y = 6.60 / 44
y = 0.15

Substitute it in second equation, 
2x + 10(0.15) = 3.60
2x = 3.60 - 1.5
x = 2.10 / 2
x = 1.05

In short, Cost of a Fudge = $1.05 & Cost of a gum = $0.15

Hope this helps!
